I'm just wondering, not about to head into the exam knowing nothing, don't worry.
If someone was to do the source paper, but they really didn't know the topics well so had very little to no historical detail like names, statistics, but they answered every question as perfectly as possible using the sources just without that detail, what grade do you think they could get?

I'm referring to gcse, by the way.[/QUOTE

To be honest, theres only really question 3 that really ndeds own knowledge. The others are primarily details from the source, so you could probably manage a B if they were answered well. It just helps if you put in some own knowledge to support each point for the highest marks.

Good to know, thank you I'm just always worried a topic will come up and it will just happen to be one my mind has gone blank with.
